Angel

Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
For     1     that would make it okay
There’s always some reason to feel not good enough
And it’s hard at the end of the day
I need some     2     or beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty and weightless
And maybe I’ll find some peace tonight
In the arms of an angel
    3     from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your     4     reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
